Posted by UPTeen23 on Saturday, November 20, 2010 10:16 AM

Hey guys. Ok heres my problem, I have a 8-40BW Master  Series engine. I programed some lights with JMRI. It ran fine afterward that night and was great. However the next day it wouldnt run! Sounds worked and everything. So when I advanced the throttle I hear the engine reving up but it just wont move. All my other sound engines run fine so I dont know what happeed. Please help me! Any help appreciated. THANKS!

This is a QSI equipped locomotive.  Try doubling clicking F6 to initiate "Startup".  It sounds like you have the loco in "Disconnect" mode.
